Installing Transceivers into the Transceiver Ports

The Switch is equipped with Enhanced Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP+) ports that can
be used to connect various other networking devices to this switch that do not support the
standard RJ-45 wiring connection. These ports are generally used to connect this switch to
optical fiber connections and can be used to connect devices to the Switch over great
distances. The maximum distance that the RJ-45 wiring connection can reach is 100
meters. Fiber optic connections can span several kilometers.
